I feel lucky that I haven't had this happen...yet.
How bad is the timesert job from a DIY point of view?

It's cake.. Carefully tap the head, backing the tap out a few times to clean the threads, then put the timesert in via the tool, put the plug in and close it up. Literally 20 minutes total.
Also worth mentioning.. I bought the kit at NAPA, the tool, 4 inserts, and a little pack of red loctite for $31... It's not actual timesert brand, but having the originals before, they look identical. And that kit is $400.

I used 30w oil, but definitely use that or grease... Once I had finished, i started the engine for a second with the plug out to blow anything out of the cylinder that may have gotten in there.

I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.
Gillom Rogers: [Books is giving Gillom a shooting lesson] Mr. Books, How is it you've killed so many men? My spread wasn't much bigger than yours.
John Bernard Books: First of all,friend, there's no one up there shooting back at you. Second, I found most men aren't willing, they bat an eye, or draw a breath before they shoot. I won't.
Thats a helecoil kit
